Phosphorus Metabolism and Estimation of Phosphorus Requirements for Sheep

Abstract: The main objective of the present work was to determine the effects of different dietary phosphorus (P) levels on endogenous faecal loss and to estimate the minimum daily requirement of P for sheep. The study was conducted with 24 Suffolk sheep which received a basic diet consisting of hay-concentrate mixture. The treatments consisted of different amounts of bone meal, added to the basic diet, so as to obtain supplementary P levels of 0, 1, 2 and 3g/day. Twenty-one days after the introduction of the experiment… Show more

“…The concentrations of plasma inorganic P were proportionally related to the level of feeding in lambs. Louvandini and Vitti (1996) reported a highly significant positive linear relationship between P intake and plasma P concentration in sheep. In this trial, plasma inorganic P levels varied between 4.4 and 5.1 mg · dl −1 , which were within the normal 4-9 mg · dl −1 range, according to Thompson (1978).…”

“…The daily P intakes during restriction period were 134, 102 and 80 mg · kg −1 BW for AD, 0.75AD and 0.60AD groups, respectively. Louvandini and Vitti (1996) classified the adequacy of daily-consumed P in sheep weighing between 38 and 40 kg as 30-80 mg · kg −1 BW -marginally deficient; 80-100 mg · kg −1 BW -adequate; >100 mg · kg BW as adequate for young growing Santa Inês lambs weighing 22 kg. In the present study, the levels of daily P intake during feed restriction were thought to be marginal.…”

“…For lower amounts of ingested phosphorus, the salivary phosphorus flux does not diminish [36], maintaining a sufficient phosphorus supply to the rumen microbes, as we previously underscored. [37] observed that over a phosphorus intake of 100 mg·kg -1 of body weight, the salivary phosphorus flux is blocked at a maximum value. However, a possible level of saturation remains to be demonstrated [15].…”

“…Por meio da equação descrita, na retenção zero de P (mantença), o P consumido seria de 0,82 g por dia e para Louvandini & Vitti (1996) Vitti et al (2000) com quatro compartimentos (separação entre tecidos moles e ósseo) e com consumo de P variando de 1,45 a 7,96 g por dia, o valor para mantença indicado foi de 0,99 g por dia, estando próximo ao valor calculado neste trabalho.…”

“…O modelo matemático proposto utilizou resultados da pesquisa sobre a perda endógena fecal em ovinos com auxílio do radiofósforo ( 32 P) pela técnica de diluição isotópica (Louvandini & Vitti, 1996) A determinação do P inorgânico no plasma foi realizada após centrifugação do sangue a 1.100 g em centrífuga Sorvall (modelo RC2B) por dez minutos e a separação das proteínas com ácido tricloroacético (10%). Na determinação da atividade radioativa, foi adicionado 1 mL de plasma em 19 mL de água destilada em frascos de cintilação seguindo-se contagem por efeito Cerenkov, segundo International Atomic Energy Agency (1979).…”
